@drdavidperlmuttermd: I focus on these factors because they are levers we can actually pull. #alzheimersprevention #Lifestyle

PT :

Spoiler alert: it’s age. For those of us who need faster to the point.

Ana :

Can you speak on creatine and the study that was done when Alzheimer’s patients were given a certain amount of creatine and started to improve. I can’t remember where I read this. Not even sure it was peer reviewed.

snowbunny :

The most powerful risk factor is our chronological age.

Bako :

Feel like I lost a year waiting for him to get to the point

Libsterama :

Doc! Read your books and watched your videos...I tjought the #1 risk factor was blood sugar? Our A1c...?

mew :

😂😂😂 I hope this backhanded way of communicating is not your usual in real life bc you would be driving people crazy. But thanks for the reminders. 🥰

Fleming Island Girl :

I just read an article that says if you have high p-tau 217 level, you’re at risk to develop Alzheimer’s in 10 years. Now I’m freaking out because my husband’s level is high, mine is normal. He’s had beta amyloid and other testing, which was normal. His Neurologist didn’t indicate heat risk to develop it in the next 10 years. Is that true? He has a follow up appt in August.

We often mess up the cause and effect relationship. Some signs are the consequences of dementia that have been acting in a human for two decades. Others collected the signs and interpreted as the cause of dementia and spread out to people on social media. The signs are not risk factors but they are the dooming results of the ongoing dementia 🤨
